> Mint is now going to die.

Doesn't always work that way (NeXT, Apple).

Apple is an outlier. Intuit is not.

"Outlier" just means it's a statistical oddity; anything can become an outlier, sometimes very quickly, if things change the right way.

Sure, but citing an outlier as an example as something that could happen isn't really meaningful, since it is so improbable.
